The legendary Emmy Award-winning star of The Young and The Restless, America's #1 soap opera, chronicles his amazing life in this startlingly candid and moving memoir, detailing everything from his birth in World War II Germany to his arrival in America to his rise to humanitarian and daytime superstar for the past 35 years.
On his journey from a hospital basement in Kiel to the soundstages of Los Angeles, Braeden has discovered more about joy, heartbreak, fear, dignity, loss, love, loneliness, exhilaration, courage, persecution, and a profound responsibility to the global community than he could have possibly learned in several lifetimes.
Braeden knew very little about the atrocities of his parents' generation before to moving to America as a youngster, which horrified and altered him. In the years that followed Germany's capitulation, Braeden grew up. In an effort to make amends for the wrongs committed in his own nation, he has devoted his life to humanitarian work. Even the German American Cultural Association was started by him. He has spent decades attempting to persuade people that our differences as individuals are far less important than our similarities.
